Every cited block was read again at HEAD: no ref left to review, no file name or hash literal added to a cited file since the pin (--detect-new-files --watch-hashes), refs recaled with their pins. Profiles built by a platform at a fixed commit, or whose bump would leave prose under an older pin, stay where they were.

|
Region-based BIOS selection: the core picks JP/NA/EU firmware based on disc region.
|
|
SHA1 validated with warning on mismatch (does not block loading).
|
|
SHA1 and alternate filenames sourced from MAME (mame src/mame/sony/psx.cpp).
|
|
The lists and the checksum search live in libretro.c:541-595,603-695.
|
|
Override option allows using PSP, PS3, or OpenBIOS as region-free alternative.
|
|
Embedded OpenBIOS (512KB) compiled into the binary serves as HLE fallback when no BIOS found.
|
|
"Skip BIOS" option patches BIOS ROM but causes compatibility issues.
|
|
Upstream Mednafen loads the same 3 region BIOS. Override BIOS and HLE fallback are libretro additions.
|
|
Two BIOS geometries are accepted: the stock 512 KB kernel and the 1 MB SCPH-5903 part,
|
|
selected by file size at load time (libretro.c:3386-3400). A 1 MB image switches Video CD
|
|
from HLE to daughterboard emulation (libretro.c:6515). Reached through the BIOS path
|
|
override only: the region name lists carry no SCPH-5903 entry, and the firmware scan
|
|
compares against the region SHA1, so a 1 MB file never matches there (libretro.c:578-586).
|
|
Mednafen rejects a BIOS that is not 524288 bytes (mednafen psx.cpp:1777), and the
|
|
fork keeps that geometry as BIOS_SIZE_STD (libretro.c:1219), so this geometry is
|
|
libretro only.
